The City of Winnipeg is thrilled to be reopening select fitness centres and indoor pools at reduced capacity starting on Monday.
The following facilities will be resuming limited indoor programming on Monday, July 12, 2021, following all the provincial public health guidelines.
- Cindy Klassen Recreation Complex (including the indoor pool)
- Fort Rouge Leisure Centre
- Freight House Recreation Centre
- Pan Am (including the indoor pool)
- Peguis Trail Health & Fitness Centre
- St. James Assiniboia Centennial
- Sergeant Tommy Prince Place
For people looking to start up swimming again, indoor pools will be limited to lane swimming, aquatic fitness classes, public swim, and aquatic sports groups.
Booking a swim time isn't mandatory but centres are encouraging it, as there are capacity restrictions in place. Blocks will be offered on a week-by-week basis and reservations can be made up to 10 p.m. the day before the pre-reserved time (space permitting). On Thursdays, another week will be available to book ahead of time.
People coming to swim or use the fitness centres will be asked to use the self-assessment symptom checklist at the time of pre-booking, and before entering the facilities. Anyone showing signs of COVID-19 will not be allowed to enter.
Capacity at indoor pools and fitness centres is limited to 25 percent in accordance with provincial public health orders, and to ensure physical distancing guidelines are maintained. Pools and fitness areas will be sanitized in between blocks of people.
The City of Winnipeg says that access to lockers and change rooms/showers will be limited. They are asking people to come dressed to swim and ready to use the fitness amenities.
